  fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have
  set in place, what are mere mortals that you are
  mindful of them, human beings that you care for
  them?

  the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and

  power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and
  weary, and young men stumble and fall but those

  run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be
  faint.
